Hip-hop biggies performing at the NFL is also quite common. From Snoop Dogg to 50 Cent, every popular hip-hop artist has hit the stage at the NFL. While these artists charge a whopping sum for performing, it also helps with the league’s commercialization. A win-win situation for both. And this time, the Detroit Lions have invited yet another star, musician, and rapper Shaboozey, to perform at their home turf, Ford Field, as they get ready to take on the Chicago Bears. “There’s a party downtown near Brush Street”, wrote the Lions on a video posted on their official X account. The ‘Start a Riot‘ singer will hit the stage during halftime, in celebration of Thanksgiving.
